I’ve heard it put as “climbing a wall”. The mental effort needed to overcome the resistance to switching gears or engaging in a task.
Some walls are low and kinda easy. Some are impassable unless the consequences are close enough to overwhelm the difficulty in climbing the wall.
Doesn’t mean it’s easier. Doesn’t mean the frustration and irritability aren’t gonna happen. And no, people definitely don’t get it.
